Custom Domain
Custom Domain for Your Author Website
Your name, your domain, your brand. Not linktr.ee/yourname or yourname.squarespace.com.
Your name as your URL
Register your domain (or use one you already own) and point it to Folio. Your website lives at yourname.com — a professional address that readers recognize and trust. No platform branding in your URL.
Free SSL and security
Every Folio site gets a free SSL certificate. Your readers see the padlock icon, search engines trust your site, and payment processing works securely. No extra configuration, no annual renewal — it just works.
Simple DNS setup
Folio provides clear, step-by-step DNS instructions for every major domain registrar. Most authors complete the setup in under 5 minutes. If you get stuck, our support team walks you through it.
Professional email support
Use a professional email like hello@yourname.com alongside your Folio site. We provide guidance on setting up email forwarding or connecting to Gmail, Fastmail, or your preferred email provider.
Why not Linktree?
Free Linktree gives you linktr.ee/yourname. That's not a professional author presence. Even their Pro plan at $24/month doesn't match the branding control Folio offers at $7/month.
